"I was glad to be working with him again," Padukone told PTI. "He has become my very good friend today. He is someone I trust personally and professionally. I am sure he will always be there for me whenever I need him."

Directed by Rohit Shetty and produced by Gauri Khan under her production banner Red Chillies Entertainment, the film tells the story of a man's journey from Mumbai to Rameswaram.

"It was lot of fun working on the film. It was a great experience," said the 27-year-old star.

"Rohit is known for making comedy films and this film as well has turned out to be very entertaining. It is very different from what he has done. I am quite excited about its release."
